Well hello there! I’m glad you like that series!
Martha and Donna are both my favorite companions. I go back and forth day to day with who I like better but they’re pretty evenly matched most of the time.
But yes, I loooove Martha! She was so clever and compassionate and strong both in character and fortitude. I was pretty irritated with the fact that they tried to play up an unrequited crush with her and Ten though because I really didn’t see the need for it. I feel like a lot of her character was supposed to be able providing support and strength for Ten, which I think I’m alright with because for the most part, it allowed her to be more of a hero than he was a lot of the time and it allowed her to connect with other characters almost more than he did. It was almost like the roles of Doctor and companion were reversed for the two of them. I will say, however, that I did not like the whole Year That Never Was thing. Like, I’m glad she saved the day but it was really screwed up to me that no one remembers it. (Except for her family and The Doctor and all that.) I dunno, I’ll always feel like she deserved more. She’s definitely one of the most underappreciated companions if you ask me. She was just fricken awesome.
